Our sustainability-led approaches are the intersection in which Planet, People and Partnerships converge. We aim to inspire a future where excellence meets environmental stewardship.
Initiatives
Fostering Social Impact
Ground-up initiatives like creation of employment opportunities, education and skill enhancements are just some of the few that demonstrates our support towards the smallholder farming communities in Southeast Asia.
Traditionally burnt or dumped, Nextevo now transforms agricultural byproducts (e.g. pineapple leaves) into sustainable value-added materials, benefiting various farmer groups in Southeast Asia at farm level.
Zero Waste Philosophy
We are championing a zero waste philosophy, diligently maximizing the use of all agricultural byproducts and residues to valorize them into circular, value-added and purposeful materials. One example, residues are what remain after PALF extraction. Nextevo is resolutely dedicated to repurposing these ‘new’ resources.
Aligning with UN SDGs
Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), our efforts contribute to Goals 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), 13 (Climate Action), and 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
Traceable Supply Chain
At Nextevo, we meticulously craft a traceable supply chain, connecting the roots of our products at the farm level to our processing stages. Our commitment is reinforced by a certificate of origin, providing traceability back to our farms and dedicated farmer cooperatives in Southeast Asia. Fostering transparency, trust and sustainability from cultivation to processing, join us in reshaping the textile narrative towards a sustainable future.
Minimizing Environmental Footprints
Southeast Asia is one of the world’s largest agricultural hubs; it is either the world’s largest or top three producers for pineapples, coconuts, rice, rubber, sugar cane, palm oil, cassava, etc. Significant volumes of agricultural wastes are commonly burnt and dumped, resulting in harmful carbon emissions.
At Nextevo, the value of sustainability is at the core of our production ethos. We transform agricultural byproducts and other natural fibers to craft innovative textile materials without imposing any additional burden on land, water and other resources.
Our ground-up initiatives generate additional income streams for farming communities in Southeast Asia. We’re set to expand our sourcing network further, amplifying our impact in the region.
